Internet Explorer stopped working when I upgraded to Parallels 6

I am fairly capable with computers and software, so your direction to a helpful resource would be appreciated if you don't know specifically how to address my problem.
I am new to Apple as of this past April and I am still adjusting from the PC world. However, many of my programs still need Windows and one on-line subscription requires Internet Explorer. I installed Parallels and Windows 7 on my MacBookPro.
Internet Explorer 8 stopped working when I upgraded Parallels from Version 5 to Version 6. It gave me an error message and did not open. IE8 had worked just fine on Parallels 5. My inquiries to Parallels went unanswered. Nor could find a solution on the Parallels website or the internet, in general. I downloaded and tried to install IE9 Beta from the Microsoft website when I saw it offered when I tried to find a solution to my IE8 problem on-line (Safari still works). Now I receive an error message "Internet Explorer did not finish installing". But, I am unable to finish its installation or remove it so I can start over.
Any ideas??

I think your problem is specific to Windows. You would have better luck in Windows-specific sites such as this one: http://support.microsoft.com/gp/pcieintro

Welcome to the forum.
Unfortunately, this is the Premiere Elements Forum, which is a video-editing program, and is not Photoshop Elements, an Image-editing program.
I will Move your post to the very active Photohsop Elements Forum.

Internet explorer stops working when i download itunes

Every time I try to download itunes, Internet explorer stops working. Help!

I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

Internet explorer stopped working after installing iTunes 11.1.5

Installed new version of iTunes 11.1.5 on pc running windows 8.1 and now internet explorer has stopped working.

How do I find out if my 'non apple' paid apps will stop working when I upgrade to iOS 5?

I have downloaded apps from both apple and other developers.
I have paid for some of these apps.
Since there are numerous apps that I use, is there a generic way to know for sure on whether the apps will still work when I upgrade to iOS5?

Unless the problem was caused by abuse or other accidental damage, Apple will exchange your in-warranty iPod with a refurbished one at no cost. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store for the exchange.

Hi,
It may be that you will need to 'reset' Internet Explorer, but you can certainly check if this issue is being caused by an add-on as follows.
Click the Start Menu, open All Programs, open Accessories, open System Tools and click on 'Internet Explorer (No Add-ons)'. See if Internet Explorer now runs correctly.
Let me know.
Regards,

Windows explorer stopped working when trying to open a specific folder...and solution

I have had a problem with a specific folder or two on my computer, when I open the folder I get the error message that windows explorer has stopped working. It only happens with specific folders and everything else works fine.
I did a lot of reading to figure out a fix.
I finally tried right clicking the program explorer.exe located in C:Windows and chose "run as administrator" and this fixed the problem.
Note that the error message details list an application crash of windows.exe
I thought I would post this to help others. I don't know if this is the same problem some folks describe with a continual loop of the error message, problems opening the control panel or problems upon start up. But if you have a similar problem to the one I described try this very simple fix.
Cheers

I don't know what OS you are running, but under Windows 7 RC build 7100 the selection was ghosted to "run as administrator".
I was able to stop the problem from happening by right clicking the folder I was having problems with, selecting properties>customize tab and changing the "Optimize this folder for:" from Videos to General Items.
I know that this particular folder was optimized for general items from the beginning as I had just folders inside which were filled with videos. When I started to move videos into this parent folder to separate them later, this parent folder switched by itself
to being optimized for Videos. I'm not positive but I think that this was the time I started to have a problem with this folder until I did what I described above.
This is my very first post, so I hope I explained things well enough to be of help to someone.
Thanks
That's fixed my problem. Stopped responding every time I opened My Videos, changed the file properties to optimized for general and now the icons aren't thumbnail big but it doesn't crash now... Thank you, it was really starting to bug me.

Internet Explorer stops working

While trying to open PFD files I keep getting a error saying that Internet Explorer has stopped working, It was working fine then all of a sudden it ins't. Is anyone else having a problem like this? Anyone know of a fix?I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling.

Hi,
Just to let you know this solution worked. Thanks for the advice!
I can't understand how this happened. I guess you have to be careful what you download from the internet as the downloads seem to come with toolbar add ons that clog up the settings on your computer. I will keep your solution to hand in case something like this happens again in the future. It's okay if you've been formally trained in computer use. I'm afraid I missed the boat with computing in school.
Thanks so much

My Epson Perfection V500 photo scanner stopped working when I upgraded to Yosemite. The only scanner available is my Epson All-in-One.

I installed the new Yosemite operating system even though I was afraid something bad would happen. Well. it did. I can no longer scan photos using my photo scanner. I have updated all the drivers and it is still not working. I have an Epson Perfection V500 photo scanner, as well as an Epson WorkForce 845 all-in-one scanner, printer, copier. The 845 is on the network. The V500 is connected to my computer. For some reason, I keep getting the error that my V500 is not connected and when I try to add it, my mac does not find it. I know it is there. It was working before I upgraded. Help

You may have already done so, but if not...
Try a different USB cable.
Reboot your computer
Launch Disk Utility (in the Utilities folder) and Repair Disk Permission
in the left pane, click once on the name of your hard disk
in the right pane, click on the First Aid tab near the top
under the blank window, click the button "Repair Disk Permissions."
Afterward, click the "verify disk" button and it will check your hard disk.
Now, try your scanner...

Intel Rapid Start stops working when RAM upgraded

I have a brand new ENVY dv7-7212nr notebook running Windows 8 64-bit.
This machine has Intel Rapid Storage Technology which caches hard disk data (I think on the 32GB SSD) and Intel Rapid Start Technology which stores active memory in the SSD cache (I think) when the computer enters a hibernation state.
The first thing I did was upgrade the RAM from 8GB to 16GB. It works fine, but then I get an error message "your system does not appear to have intel rapid start technology enabled."
HP provides very little information on this, basically none. I assume the memory is being cached on the SSD, but I don't know how to verify this. Also I notice that acceleration is not enabled under the Rapid Storage Tecnology applet for either drive.
I called tech support twice but the techs knew nothing about upgrading RAM beyond the usual and couldn't get it to work either.
Does anybody even know exactly how the SSD is being used in my system? That would be valuable information to me.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for reading my reply.
The "little SSD" is still a drive and not a chip, although you are right that it is little and it is attached to the motherboard. It is little because its form factor is not the typical 2.5 inch size but what's call "mSATA". In fact, the service manual for this dv7-7212nr laptop shows you how you can remove and replace or upgrade this mSATA SSD:
Below is a comparison of how small the mSATA form factor is to other drive sizes (from Left to Right: mSATA, 1.8", 2.5", 3.5"):
So if I want to replace the mSATA 32 GB SSD with a 64 GB SSD, I would have to get a mSATA SSD, not the typical 2.5" ones. So for this dv7-7212nr laptop, there can be 3 total drives installed: one in the mSATA slot and two in the 2.5'' drive bays. However, the default configuration as sold by HP only has one mSATA 32 GB SSD and one 750 GB SATA hard drive, with the remaining drive bay empty.
This dv7-7212nr laptop does contain all the latest (and perhaps more complex) technologies and HP probably does not expect the typical user/consumer to go and muck around all the default settings. However, if one is curious and willing to make the effort to learn, the material is just a google search away.
Here are the instructions for setting up Intel Rapid STORAGE Technology (aka Intel Smart Response Technology): http://download.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/intel_smart_response_technology_user_guide.pdf
For this dv7-7212nr laptop, you can ignore steps 1-4 because the BIOS is already configured properly from the factory (unless some changes were made by the end user).
Here are the instructions for setting up Intel Rapid Start Technology:
http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/rapid_start_technology_user_guide_v11.pdf
For this particular laptop, ignore steps 1-7 but it is important to do this first: set up Intel Smart Response Technology as above, making sure to allow enough space on the SSD for a hibernation partition that is equal to or greater than the total size of RAM installed. Then follow steps 8 to the end of the guide. It is important to set up Intel Smart Response before Intel Rapid Start because Intel Smart Response will destroy all partitions and data on the disk (if you set up a hibernation partition for Intel Rapid Start first, it will be removed when you set up Intel Smart Response).
I have successfully ENable and DISable these technologies on my laptop using the above guides (with my modifications). WARNING: back up all data before trying any of this.
In your case, I agree that you can also disable Rapid START and just use the whole SSD for acceleration along with the 16 GB RAM upgrade.
